102710, nothing's stopping CLE from drafting / trading for a guy...

who's still on rookie scale.

and even after rookie scale, guys that are SOLELY rim protectors with no real offensive duties can be had for MLE or thereabouts. and that's all a bron/love/irving cavs team would need @ center.

this isn't true. saying it over and over won't make it true.

look at the list i posted. every guy on there isn't either on rookie scale or making huge money. robin lopez and mahinmi were MLE guys. udoh and mozgov are UFAs that won't break the bank. koufos is cheap. i'm not saying there's a ton of guys, but they're out there and smart front offices find them.

we're not talking about all pros here. you guys are setting the bar too high w/ this hibbert/ibaka stuff. you're not gonna get great all around players @ every single position.
